education (ECE) translates into children’s school readiness outcomes. Whilst the CRS hves been integrated into the MOES’
ECE curriculum, teacher guides and training, etc., actual assessment on children’s learning and developmental stans against
the CRS has not yet been undertaken to date, nor is a system to undertake such an assessment yet to be established.
